In May 1973 Skylab was launched using a two-stage Saturn V, sometimes called a Saturn INT-21. It was the only launch not directly related to the Apollo lunar landing program. Three crews lived aboard Skylab from May 25, 1973 to February 8, 1974, with Skylab remaining in orbit until July 11, 1979.
This is an upgraded reissue of the original Airfix Saturn V kit with the undersized CSM and associated parts replaced with a new sprue. Additionally, this 2011 release contains all the sprues from the two previous versions of this kit, plus another sprue of parts to replace the lunar S-IVB stage to Skylab. You can build either the Apollo missions or Skylab launcher Saturn V, though markings and instructions are only provided for the Skylab version.
